Librarians are the guardians of information in our society. Do you have a question? Talk to your librarian. He or she may not know the right answer but they sure do know where to start looking for it. If you are a teacher or a student, obviously you go to your school media specialist. Just like the librarian at your local neighborhood branch library, your school media specialist has many resources at his or her disposal that will yield up the answer you are looking for.
As information specialists, librarians are in the business of identifying and using current high quality information resources in both print and electronic formats. Recently, the American Association of School Librarians released their list of Landmark Websites for Teaching and Learning. The websites that made this list have “exemplary histories of authoritative, dynamic content and curricular relevance. They are free, web-based sites that are user friendly and encourage a community of learners to explore and discover and provide a foundation to support 21st-century teaching and learning.”
Among this list is PBS Teachers. PBS Teachers is noted for their standards-based and cross-curricular resources that connect to both on-air and online PBS programming.
Visit PBS Teachers now and be ready for a new school year!
